Yeah, you're going to totally get a positive response. Go, you! This isn't an attention seeking self thread at all..

I like this fit a lot because it's a minimalist take that you cannot really go wrong with. Even though it's probably not what the designers had in mind when designing the individual pieces, it still looks pretty good. The cropped trousers might be too much for some posters, however.

I'm pretty sure this image was tinfoil, although it might not be, lanklets all look alike. I like how he styled ramones in an outfit that wasn't gothninja-y, which always came across as tryhard.

Speaking of Yohji, I saw these pants off Y!Jpn. They were way above what I'd spend secondhand for a pair of pants, but the detailing and the embroidery is fantastic. Yohji has always focused on silhouette and materials.

>>15644425
That's a jacquard/tapestry weave, not embroidery.

>>15644090
i mean when is the last time where you actually contributed to a thread. all i see you do is have political scraps and shitpost with igor

Not entirely sure if you're actually sincere but anyway

The thing is discussing pieces of clothing/fits/designers you just like and your reasoning why isn't really something that constructive especially in the way you're doing it specifically here >>15644236

These oldfags that you talk about didn't necessarily leave its just that they grew to move on to different things and that necessarily might include not posting here. The idea of preserving the same group posting the same fits over years is just odd because things are different compared to how they used to be

Realistically instead of just dwelling on what you think is the 'best time of this board' you should just create your own content and add it because constantly reposting the same stuff is what's created this stagnation not these people that used to post here leaving

This fit

"Better" to zoomers means heavy censorship because they grew up in a world where they don't know any different

>>15644079

Op, I'm trying to find a good pair of black, grey or brown pants (no jeans) but have had trouble finding something I like. Ive looked at dior cat claw cordoury pants, and some deepti waxed trousers, but can't really settle. Any ideas?

>>15644236
I want ID on most of this shit he is rocking

>>15644437
Sorry I had to base the material off memory and Google Translate. According to the codes, they're from his Spring/Summer 2011 collection which was dandy-inspired.

Here's a link to the collection:
https://www.vogue.com/fashion-shows/spring-2011-menswear/yohji-yamamoto

It's probably one of his better ones in the past ten years, next to FW 2019. Diehard Yohji fans would say he's become a sellout, however.

>>15644533

I'm being pretty sincere. I am not sure actually how I want to go about this. Relating to your last statement, I know I have to post high-effort content, but it's hard. I'm really glad for the criticism. It's probably true that Knoch is never gonna post here again. However, the OG tripfags brought quality content and discussion to this shithole. If there are a couple of posters on this site who try to do that, tripcodes or not, I do not really care either/or.

Can you add on to how it's not constructive? I am really trying.

>>15644587
Go onto Yahoo! Japan/Rakuten and proxy shit. I found all my pants through that without paying huge amounts of money. Or find a good thrift store and get stuff tailored. Hedi era stuff still goes for a premium. Try to watch pants you like on Grailed, and wait for the seller to drop prices.

If you're looking at artisanal brands along the line of Deepti Barth and CCP, then Stylezeitgeist might be a good place to check for deals. SSense has their end of season sales. Atelier NY sometimes has sales I think. Otherwise shell out $$$

>>15644732
Anything relating to those images is long gone, but I'll try to find info for you, anon.

>>15644732
The sweater is Margaret Howell, the tee is Rick, the pants are women's linen pants from Next, the shoes aren't mainline.

>>15644079
following this thread.

>>15644090
stfu cunt

>japan exclusives
>proxy fee 10%
>shipping 60+ USD
>custom fees %15

Wish I had friends in Japan to proxy for me, its literally cheaper if I went to Japan and bought 5k of clothes in person.

really like these suspender pants

>>15644903
I have a similar pair that are high-waisted. The tag is worn away but from the sizing notation, they're at least from before 1999. I'm shy so no bully plz

>>15645045
must have pair, hard to find these seasons

summer goals

>>15644831
>I know I have to post high-effort content, but it's hard

It is but it's worth it not just for the general quality of the board but for furthering your own personal goals

>It's probably true that Knoch is never gonna post here again. However, the OG tripfags brought quality content and discussion to this shithole. If there are a couple of posters on this site who try to do that, tripcodes or not, I do not really care either/or.

Because there's this air that since these old tripfags left new people are constantly compared to these people that dont even post here any more. There's plenty of other people that do styles similar to knoch well but are just shit on for "trying to hard to be knoch"

>Can you add on to how it's not constructive? I am really trying.
> like how he styled ramones in an outfit that wasn't gothninja-y, which always came across as tryhard.

Specific pieces being relegated to specific genres sounds pretty creatively stifling to me. Why wouldn't people want to try to branch out and use things in ways they want to instead of having to adhere to specific (and sometimes incredibly vague and dated genres) alongside the fact that calling something "tryhard" really means literally nothing and serves to absolutely deteriorate what little critique could be made

>>15645105
Based. I will keep everything you said in mind going forward.

I do feel it's necessary to build rapport in facilitating discussion. In this thread, I'm posting about Yohji. Newfags hopefully at least know who he is. It doesn't help if I photodump some unknown designer that's never been posted to this website before. What would be there to talk about? In that regard, I do want to have some form of genre exist. Gothninja, techwear, dark academia, lunarcore, etc. all popped up as a result of this need for genre. Idk if that makes sense or not.

Incidentally, you also seem to know what you're talking about, so post inspo.

>>15644079
who cares
we only come back to shitpost occasionally
the board will also rot on a surface lvl

also avant garde memer artisianal looks are super cringy and dated
the look has been long dead and only flyovers care about it

>>15645231
can you try to help out for a bit please ? Especially if you're not LARPing

>>15645105
>the OG tripfags brought quality content and discussion to this shithole

aside from void making some cool clothes at his mums house and pf or levi bringing s tier shitposting the majority were schizoid ramblers or rejected attention seekers who could never make the cut on sufu

>I'm posting about Yohji. Newfags hopefully at least know who he is. It doesn't help if I photodump some unknown designer that's never been posted to this website before. What would be there to talk about?

Personally I think while designers are obviously at the forefront of the field in general it feels strange to me because high fashion has very little bearing on the majority of people that post here. To me what's interesting is seeing people put their personal creativity towards assembling themselves something thats not just manufactured from some sort of idea of "well this is what is at the top so its the most desirable" yohji is absolutely interesting but whats more interesting is seeing what people decide to incorporate when they take inspiration from what they see

>I do want to have some form of genre exist. Gothninja, techwear, dark academia, lunarcore, etc. all popped up as a result of this need for genre. Idk if that makes sense or not

The problem is even each one of these genres are fairly vague and nebulous while having a couple examples of "what they are" that really never change. It's obviously a great creative starting point when there's a genre people can attempt to create something to fit that mold but creatively stifling when trying to blend several ideas together that may have elements from several genres

Don't get me wrong though I find it amazing that someone can get struck with inspiration and post a few pictures and work out an idea in a way that gets enough people also adding to it until it becomes a collective thing

That's really what brings me coming back. It's fun when it feels like there's an actual give and take

>>15644533
based, fuck /fa/ boomers
we have our schitzos now thats all we need

just make good inspo and discussion threads, don't be a stuffy cock about it

>>15644901
ye that’s how that faggot at silverleague makes all his money

>>15644090
Real obvious you're salty about the "gross to post as a tripfag" comment lmao

>>15645238
So buying used clothes from luxury brands they can't afford and being pretentious about it makes them informative and knowledgeable huh?

It's not some unemployed NEET in used clothes posting for pictures talking about writing poetry while their mom bitches at them.

Honestly these kids have gone no where in life.

The relatively normal people work retail. I think alekza and I were the only ones to finish college and not drop out

>>15645415
meanwhile sieg only getting fatter and uglier, and somehow, more Mexican

>>15645415
you're definitely proof all the oldfags are garbage

at least they had the decency to leave

>>15645415
u should use the real sh code not that the newfags know but still

greatest meme to come out of board culture rlly

>>15645415
You're about 30 now? How's your engineering career going?

>>15645279
I'll keep posting inspo because people seem to like them and maybe fits if I'm not too shy.

>>15646233
32 today, didn't pursue it.

>>15646245
You were getting an MBA in business yeah?

>>15644169
please shut up you are very dumb

>>15644236
tinfoil was such a tryhard, no one actually liked him

>>15644831
yohji is a sellout, he doesn't even design the mens collections anymore, it's not really a big deal, i mean can he man reasonably be expected to be a relevant designer for 40+ years? his time has come and gone and he's making bank now so who cares
>>15645340
kind of based desu

>>15645415
alekzia took 7 years to finish univeristy LOL, 7 consecutive years of being in post secondary to get a ba, i think the most insane part is because she comes from a rich brahmin family it literally didn't matter and now she has a decent job in san francisco

>>15646310
Yeah, going on year 6 I was like uhhhh why are you still claiming to be a student. Then again I think she moved out of Canada to live in America to do that???

It took me awhile too, 7-8 years to finish everything. I kind of want to go back and get some medical school stuff done, I recently took a EMT course load and it was interesting.

I literally want to look like this man except with 2 eyes

>>15646261
I don't think I talked about any of the specifics of my college career on 4chan, do I know you?

>>15646310
Talk shit post fit

>>15646391
I've just been here a long time

>>15646310
He does work on men’s collections with his 2nd in line. The women’s wear is his baby. The practice anti-business, anti- fast sales led his company into financial ruin. New lines like ground y, s’yte had to be in order for him to survive.

>>15646677
As long as he still has input into his designs for menswear it doesn't really matter. 2019 AW was a very nice collection. The details on this jacket are impeccable

>>15645279
what's this from and what is the robotic head thing?

>>15647433
dunno if you're on chrome but on most browsers if you right click and hit s on any image it'll automatically open up a search for it

It's from the movie Everything Beautiful Is Far Away (2017). It's not really that great of a movie but I used it as an example because the design/wardrobe is very neat
